学习定语从句要避免犯以下错误
南昌十九中 宋焘
定语从句的结构和用法比较复杂,大家在使用时往往容易犯一些错误,以一些经典题目为例,提醒大家避免犯类似错误。
一、定语从句中加了多余的关系副词或介词。 1.误:The house where he lives in needs repairing. 正:The house where he lives needs repairing. 译:他住的房子需要修理。 析:关系副词where在从句中作地点状语,in属多余。 2.误:I still remember the day on when I first came to Beijing. 正:I still remember the day when/ on which I first came to Beijing. 译:我仍记得我第一次来到北京那天的情景。 析:应删去on,因为when在这里的意思是on which,否则介词on就重复了,或把when改为which。
二、在定语从句中加了多余的定语。 1.误:Some of the boys I invited them didn’t come. 正:Some of the boys I invited didn’t come. 译:我邀请的男孩中有几个没有来。 析:应删去them,因为从句的宾语是省略了的whom,who或that。 2.误:The book that you need it is in the library. 正:The book that you need is in the library. 译:你需要的书在图书馆里。 析:应删去it,因为从句的宾语是关系代词that。
三、省略了定语从句中作主语的关系代词。 1.误:Children eat a lot of sugar often have bad teeth. 正:Children who that eat a lot of sugar often have bad teeth. 译:吃糖多的孩子往往牙齿不好。 析:应加上关系代词who或that,因为从句少主语,且主语不能省略。 2.误:The key opens the bike is missing. 正:The key that/which opens the bike is missing. 译:开这辆自行车的钥匙不见了。 析:应加上关系代词that或which,因为从句少主语,且主语不能省略。
四、在作先行词的时间名词或地点名词后错用了关系代词或关系副词。 1.误:I still remember the day when we spent together. 正:I still remember the day that/which we spent together. 译:我仍记得我们在一起度过的日子。 析:应改when为that或which,因为从句中谓语动词spent是及物动词,其后应跟宾语而不是时间状语。 2.误:This is the house where we lived in last year. 正:This is the house which/that we lived in last year. 译:这是我们去年住过的那个房子。 析:应改where为which或that,因为从句谓语动词lived后有介词in,其后少介词宾语,而不是地点状语。
五、误将强调句型当定语从句。 1.误:It was in the kitchen where the fire broke out. 正:It was in the kitchen that the fire broke out. 译:大火发生在厨房。 析:应将where改that,因为原句还原为The fire broke out in the kitchen后,在语法和句意上均成立,故此题是强调句型,而非定语从句。
